Isn't there anybody who can answer my query on whether there is any real difference between ways biochemic and homeopathic remedies work?
I feel there isn't any.

Hello,

There is a big difference in therapeutics of Homeopathic remedies and Biochemic remedies.
Its best you read about Biochemic remedies from "The Twelve Tissu Remedies of Schuesller" By Boericke/Dewey. There is a very clear idea of the physiological effects of these remedies.
The biochemic system, only includes these 12 remedies either individually or in combinations for all complaints, based on Sphere of action, Sensation, Discharges, Modalities.

In homeopathy we have more than 2000 remedies that are matched on symptom similarity and individualization of a person taking into account his entire history. The potencies used are generally much higher and we use a single remedy at a time.

Regards,
doctorleela

thanks dr leela.

i am familiar with the kind of reply you gave me, but i just cannot accept it.

If the principle of biochemistry were correct, what kind of replenishment of salts/elements would any of those salts would contain in their 200X potency? There is absolutely no physiological quantity of the original element in any of the 200X potencies.

Maybe, as qualified homeopath, you could do some more research in this regard instead of accepting whatever has been mentioned in the traditional textbooks and enlighten us.

Thank you so much.

Sounds like jumma set you up, Dr. Leela. As I said earlier the dark side begins its cyclical emergence. On the bright side its sting gets less and less as time goes on.

By normal standards, if a remedy is prescribed "biochemically", one does not prescribe beyond 12X.

If one prescribed beyond that potency, it should be prescribed on homeopathic principles of the LAw of Similars.
SO if you have a problem with that, I suggest YOU do some research to satisfy your "acceptability" needs. You don't need to be a qualified homeoapth to do that.

We "qualified homeopaths" are generally more busy being instruments to heal the sick and those in need of medical help. And the tools at our disposal are quite adequate using "traditional textbooks".

Also, I rarely find it necessary to do research to enlighten people on purely academic grounds!
So maybe we'll hear about you doing something useful.

You're welcome.

Its funny to me that Jumma wanted to set Dr. Leela up.

I recall learning that the tissue salts are diluted via trituration to the potency of 12x--however, they are not put through the process of Succussion, as all homeopathic remedies are. Therefore a combined salt biochemical tissue salt in a 12x potency is in fact not the same thing as a homeopathic remedy in a 12x potency made from the same original substance.

So, I guessed Jumma missed that point in his vast search for the differences between homeopathic remedies.

Perhaps there are 2 lessons for Jumma: when you seek to set someone up for ridicule, you usually only succeed in exposing your own shortcomings.

Hey Thanks all of you, that feels good!

Just had another thought for Jumma -
Research in Cell and Molecular Biology has been growing by leaps and bounds in the last 10 years.
You'll probably find, but doing a little reading research yourself that a lot of what was said in our "traditional textbooks" has been confirmed at some point or the other in different research projects.
Even more reason not to discard the wisdom of those who understood so much with so little scientific support.
So, happy researching.
